You know what's weird? 10 minutes ago I got a call from a user who's
wireless keyboard wouldn't work in only one 5250 session of MAPICS.
Opened another session and it worked fine but I couldn't get that first
session to work. Worked in Office apps. Nothing in the joblob. Functions
wouldn't work by mouse. Closed session with mouse and reopened it and
keyboard worked.

5 minutes later the user called back to say it's doing it again.

I suggested he replace the batteries which he's hasn't done yet because
he's kind of new.

And that is why I got rid or my wireless keyboard - erratic behavior
when batteries go low.

Data points: I had a Logitech, the help desk call was for an MS
wireless keyboard.

Nope you flat our do not have the ability to enter the area you would
type i.e. with the mouse you can't click and get in there etc.

Perhaps then the keyboard is working fine, but the text is displayed in
the same colour as the background or in a really really tiny font.
Obviously, this is a shot in the dark.


Hmm. Do non-keyboard input methods, e.g. Edit > Paste, work in those
contexts?

Cheers,
Terry.
